IMPTEST conducts impact testing on shielding materials to protect aircraft from small fragments caused by engine failures. The project evaluates various metallic and composite shields under different conditions, including temperature effects and impact angles, to enhance safety in aviation.
IMPTEST involves a campaign for gas gun impact testing of shielding materials for protection of aircraft against small fragments generated by failure of rotating engine components.
The test campaign includes three phases, where Phase 1 involves normal impact to find the ballistic limit velocity of metallic shields and three different composite shield concepts, using three different impactors at velocities below 600 m/s.
Phase 2 involves studies of the influence of impact angle and higher velocit…
